sorry for such a short chapter, but I didn't have much time to write because of school work. Here is some emotional fluff for all of my babies!  I promise I'll have another chapter up next week and I'll try to get my upload schedule set straight so i'm not all over the place. Love you all my Darling! ~  <3    -Sparkle

    Waylon slowly opened his heavy eyes to see Eddie's face right in front of his. Waylon took his hand up and began to stroke Eddie's cheek. He couldn't help but think how peaceful Eddie looked while he slept as his chest slowly lifted and shallowed. It hadn't been until Waylon tried to get up that he realized that Eddie was clinging to him. He sighed. He didn't want to wake him up but he needed to get to the bathroom. "Well shit."

    he began to slowly slip out of Eddie's grasp before tip toeing  over to a bathroom down the hall. He began to think about yesterday and started to breath heavily. Why hadn't his systems alert him about an enemy near by? They had never faltered like this before and it was starting to concern him, would it happen again? He needed to convince Eddie to store his memories here soon before his memories began to falter as well. Damn, was he going to become one of the outdated systems he had hung along to gym ceiling? He REALLY didn't want that. 

    Maybe he would ask Eddie here today about storing his files. They were "friends" now right, I mean Eddie did save his life after all. As he walked back to the room he began to walk more slowly. He felt like something was off. Did he forget to set the electrical systems back up after shocking Chris.... no those were fried. Did he set up the security systems around the main room to keep Eddie safe.... yes he did that. Then what could it be? He shook off the weird feeling and opened the door to the main room where they were staying in. His eyes widened as he saw the large figure on the mattress curled into a ball and rocking back and forth. He ran over to Eddie, making the scared man jump in the process. 

    Eddie had tears running down his face and his breathing was ragged. He seemed to calm down at the sight of Waylon being there trying to comfort him. Waylon wrapped his arms around Eddie keeping him close as he whispered calming things in his ear. 

    "I-I thought y-you were gone. A-after how s-scared you were l-last night, I thought you h-had run off!" Eddie had buried his face into Waylon's neck and started to sob again. It had only then accord to Waylon that Eddie had abandonment issues. An old memory long forgotten had suddenly come back. He remembered reading through a bunch of the patience's files one day during break because the doctors had left them in the break room. Among the many files were Eddie's files. He had read that his mother had left and he was stuck with his father and uncle who had done horrible things to him. things no one, let alone a child, should go through. After years of being molested by his father and uncle, he had murdered them in an attempt to be free but was soon institutionalized here at Murkoff. 

    "It's okay Eddie, I'm here. I never left. I'm right here." He repeated these words in a soothing voice as he rocked Eddie back and forth in his arms. After minutes of this Eddie had began to calm down and his breathing had become normal again, though he wouldn't let go his death grip on Waylon's shirt. He was still shook slightly when he said, "please, don't leave me again."
